Nanotubes Knotted Up
Abstract:
Gabe Romain: A method for tying tiny knots in and around nanotubes has been developed that could lead to new ways of manipulating materials at the molecular level. Developed by researchers at the Chalmers University of Technology in Göteborg, Sweden and Institut Curie in Paris, France, the technique could be used to trap and manipulate single nano-sized objects in biological systems.
